His speech was a **** show. Literally cursing. From what I gathered, this senior day was not a good one. 

It was more Woodson day then senior day

Give me Pearl, or give me death!

In Woodson's mind, he really thinks this is all his.

I'm just messing with you. 

You'll probably see a lot of May when he's whipping our butts at Ohio St for the next 25 years

You'll get Mike Woodson and a comatose Armond Hill.

And likely a "It's the fans fault" Payne.

Everyday is Mike Woodson day in Bloomington! Mike Woodson just had an audience on that day

I think Dolson can make this decision himself, Quinn is not going to stop him. He will strongly be against it but not stop it. 

I think Cathy even said Scott doesn't need board approval for this. 

This is what Cathy said:

Hire the right guy and you can give them the authority to make decisions, even really big ones. Hire a lawyer or a former athlete from your school with no time as an AD anywhere, ever, and you’re in trouble at some point. We done this, as has Purdue (Burke swam at Purdue but had zero AD experience, by the way), and it...

---------------

To me that says while an AD can have that authority, Dolson doesn't.  But IMO Cathy is either someone who knows someone on the board is just simply doing a roundabout way of defending them (doing a lot of doublespeak and then ending with 'I'm not either defending or supporting' but when anyone attacks the BOT, she is pointing fingers elsewhere) or "she" is just Ngw's alternate account.  In her version, Quinn and the BOT supported hiring Woodson as did Dolson but it's Dolson's fault despite the fact that Dolson's first choice was Stevens.

Where should I send the flowers?  Or in lieu of flowers, can I send a donation for Chris to run for the BOT?

Anyway, I'm already at the stage of grief where I've accepted that we have Woodson coming back next year.

Don't forget, it's also Glass's fault in the first place for making Woodson wait in the metaphorical lobby. 

Gee seems weird 2 different ADs have the same exact problem (being pressured to hire Woody). Now the one who bent the knee, is being left out to dry and neutered in his role. Lol.

Would definitely have the same vibe as Archie losing to Rutgers, getting booed off the floor, and getting fired a few days later. Minus a couple hundred IU fans maybe.

Was that in Indy?  Doubt many IU fans will be in Minnesota (is that where we play this year) to notice any booing

Yes, hence the "minus a couple hundred IU fans". There were 6,500 people in Lucas Oil that night and you could still hear him getting booed on TV lol. And never underestimate IU fans' willingness to travel.

But "true fans" don't travel, or do they travel? I'm confused.

They played at Lucas Oil for the BTT? I believe you, I just don't remember that.

I've seen no opinion, only vague allusions to working in the administration.

No insight, only "consensus decision making" and "but my SEC BOT friends!..." 

Oh yeah, and a whole lot of speaking down to people, very plainly. 

I don't disagree about repetitive group stampedes on different opinions at all Stu...

As for an agenda, when you're admittedly part of the administration, everything you say is in defense of the BOT despite you claiming you're not here to criticize or defend, while offering no actual insight to back that up and then be dismissive to anybody trying to have an actual dialogue ... You know, about something substantive like how consensus decision making may lead to unilateral authority ... it's hard to take it for anything but an agenda. She's not sharing an opinion I disagree with she is positioning herself as an administration insider, then offering no actual perspective aside from telling you that you're wrong and know nothing re: what you're talking about. I don't see that kind of posting style bringing much value to the board. 

Give me a vacation if I'm being too much but I've got way less patience for that than anything NGW did 

One of the things I noticed about Cathy is she answers questions with questions!

GO PENN STATE! I think everyone here should put $500 on Indiana to win tonight. That would guarantee an Indiana L.

I'm picking Purdue to win it all in my office pool. That way, it guarantees they don't win it all
